Job15:33

Verſ. 33. He ſhall ſhake off his unripe grapes as the vine] Filios intelligit per batra, & pueros per florem, ſaith Vatablus: i.e. By unripe grapes he meaneth the wicked mans ſons growne up; and by flowers of the Olive, his little ones; and ſo it is the ſame with the former, only flouriſhed over with two ſimilitudes. He (that is God) will ſnap off his ſowre grapes as she vines: ſo Broughton rendreth it;Epiſt. 7. Luct[illegible: 1 letter]oſa foecunditas (ſuch as was that of Laetae in Hierome, who buried many children) is a ſore affliction. If the bud or flower decay, what hope can there be of fruit? Others underſtand it of the untimely death, as before, or of the decay of his wealth and poſſeſſions.
